Yesterday I showed you a picture of me after I got off the trolley in Columbia, South Carolina which is how we got around during Palmetto Tat Days in 2003. I continued to look at everything I have saved since I was finally on the internet. In an old email ( one of many ) I have saved from one computer to another was an old email from Wally Sosa. There was the picture with others she sent to me in April after the Tatting event. I thank Wally for sharing with me. I also have some pictures that I have from the 2003 Palmetto Tat Days event which was the first one. Enjoy the pictures...starting with the first one of me getting off the trolley.

Here are some of the other tatters on the trolley. I see Terry Mcuffin who is now with the tatting angels but if you know some of the other people's names in the picture please share in the comments.

I can't tell if we were waiting to get on the trolley or we got off the trolley. I see Jane Moody, Teresa Woods and others. In all my pictures please share names of people in the comments.

Are these shirts cool being worn by the Southern Belles I think from Tenn. So here id the back of them and...

Here is the front of them.

Take a look at the tatted collar and hat band.

This is my purse that I made which was  my everyday purse until I finally decided not to make it my everyday purse. I kept catching the tatting on think and have repaired it many times so I just now take it to all lacing events.

One of my favorite pictures is Wally, Riet and me. I wish I weighed what I did in the picture again. Hard for me to believe this was 14 years ago.

Tatting fun continues....

Tatting and chit chatting in the lobby of our hotel.

The tat off where Mark Myers was the winner.

A lot of us went out to dinner at Applebees. My husband wasn't with me so I ordered his steak dinner to go which he ate in the hotel room while I went back to mingling with other tatters.

Pete and Betty Alderson from Snowgoose. Betty has gone to be with Tatting angels. You can see a profile Of Joy Crutchfield who is now Joy Robinson now.

Here is Debbie Arnold and Diana Stevenson.

I hope you have enjoyed these pictures. If anybody else has pictures from the First Palmetto Tat Days...I think we all would love to see them.
